New engines rev up the Mercede

The new S-Class will enter the local market in the fourth quarter 2017 with comprehensive new features.

Among the highlights is an all-new and highly efficient engine range with a series of new technologies for electrification of the powertrain.

Intelligent Drive takes another step towards autonomous driving. The S-Class is the undisputed leader in the premium segment and now sets new standards in the interior.

Three completely new engines have their debut in the new S-Class: Diesel and petrol variants of six-cylinder in-line engines and a new V8 biturbo petrol engine.

Mercedes-Benz also plans a plug-in hybrid with an electric range of about 50 kilometres and ground breaking technologies such as the 48 volt Integrated Starter Generator and the electric booster compressor celebrate their world premiÃ¨re.

The development work on the new S-Class was very extensive, with 6500 new components. The flagship from Mercedes- Benz was the best-selling luxury saloon in the world in 2016.
